Dressed as the cannon fodder who died prematurely, I will marry the villain in anger

Chapter 580 Passing by Lueyang

The next day Tuoba Jin simply didn't come to the city gate, and just came out of sight.

Xianbei was really defeated this time, and its authority was seriously weakened.

So many people left the city, because the Pingzhou Army was watching eagerly, and they could no longer behave like monsters.

Qin Heng and his men guarded the city gate for three days. After all the people who were sure to leave had left, they waited for another half a day before leaving with five thousand soldiers and horses.

Before leaving, Ma Jin habitually looked back, and then found that Tuoba Jin, who had disappeared for two days, had arrived, "Your Majesty, the second prince Tuoba and Dugu Zhong are looking at us."

After Ma Jin finished speaking, he immediately added, "Don't look back, lest they think we take them two more seriously."

"Yeah." Qin Heng discovered it just now.

Ma Jin's words made the friends around him restrain their urge to look back, but if they didn't look back, it didn't mean they couldn't speak.

"I wonder what these two people are holding back?"

"You're not thinking about how to attack us, are you?"

"If they dare to take action, we have something good to entertain them!"

Ma Jin still remembered that before departure, the governor took them to a hidden valley.

The governor asked them to wait outside while he went in to negotiate.

Not long after the governor entered, an angry voice came out.

"No more, really no more."

"Okay, I'll have the boxes under that wall taken away."

"No, please leave some for me."

Later they found out that the valley was the development base for secret weapons and explosives. The governor went back and emptied the last bit of the research and development master's stock.

In just one day, Qin Heng and his army moved from the rear, past all the people rushing on their way, to the front. At this time, we are about to pass Lueyang.

During this period, the common people saw their army and tried desperately to catch up, but they never stopped.

Qin Heng's two goals of this trip have been achieved, and they will rush back to Pingzhou as soon as possible.

Pingzhou needs them.

In short, they will not take these people on the road. What they can do is to remove the dangers and obstacles they encounter on the road, so that the people will encounter less danger.

Pingzhou's current strength only allows them to do this. Being able to take one trip is already considered the most benevolent thing. It is impossible to spend several months escorting tens of millions of people to their destination.

Yongzhou, Lueyang

Qin Heng tried his best to stay as close to Dali as possible on his way back. When four to five thousand soldiers and horses passed through Lueyang, there was quite a lot of movement.

"What's the noise?"

The soldiers on the Lueyang City thought that the Xianbei barbarians were attacking again, so they all prepared for the attack. The messengers quickly ran to inform the general Fu Jiangong.

After the distance between the two sides narrowed, the stationed general Zheng Pei recognized Qin Heng and said excitedly, "The leader is the prince!"

Now, nearly half of the people stationed with Fu Jiangong in Lueyang were the original officers and soldiers of the Qin family army. At this time, everyone looked at Qin Heng excitedly, with eager eyes.

Unfortunately, Qin Heng only glanced at them from a distance.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Qin Heng and his troops passed by far away and did not get close to Lueyang City.

Ma Jin also noticed the situation in Lueyang City, "Your Majesty, this is Zheng Pei——"

Ma Jin said, rolled his eyes, and suggested with a smile, "Master, this place is in an excellent location. You guys are tired after walking for so long. Let's set up camp here tonight?"

Others echoed.

Qin Heng smiled helplessly, "You are provocative." If they set up camp here, Fu Jiangong would not be able to sleep tonight.

"We don't. We mainly want the brothers stationed in Lueyang to take a good look at us. They haven't seen us for so long, so they must miss us."

Qin Heng looked at the sky and agreed.

Seeing their actions of setting up camp, Zheng Pei and other old members of the Qin family army were very excited.

After hearing the report, Fu Jiangong quickly led his people to the tower. He was keenly aware of the mood of the soldiers on the tower.

Fu Jiangong quickly figured out the situation, but what puzzled him was why Qin Heng appeared here with four to five thousand soldiers and horses?

"General, do you want to attack?"

If they can eliminate Qin Heng's branch, then they can also make meritorious deeds, right? Fu Jiangong's confidant thought greedily. In his opinion, with their military strength in Lueyang, wouldn't it be easy to swallow up a team of four to five thousand people?

"Don't cause trouble!" Fu Jiangong was still stunned. The court only asked him to guard Lueyang to guard against Xianbei, but did not order them to deal with the Pingzhou rebels!

He could still tell the difference this time.

and……

Fu Jiangong glanced at the soldiers around him without leaving any trace. He didn't think that if he really fought with Qin Heng's team, his soldiers would be killed.

In addition, he was worried that if they really fought with Qin Heng's army, Xianbei would take advantage. When Lueyang fell, he would be blamed for his death!

Therefore, Fu Jiangong not only did not take the initiative to attack, but also guarded against Qin Heng and others from attacking the city.

Fu Jiangong firmly refused to admit that he was psychologically affected by Xianbei, and he was full of hesitation and doubt even when facing the five thousand soldiers and horses led by Qin Heng.

At this moment, they discovered that small black spots were emerging behind Qin Heng's army, and then they became densely packed.

"what is that?"

When they got closer, they discovered that these black spots were actually ordinary people with their families.

"General, there are so many people!"

"What - what - happened?"

"Did the Northern Territory and Liangzhou be captured by Pingzhou? Otherwise, why would so many people flee?"

"Impossible! There are 200,000 Xianbei troops stationed in the northern border and Liangzhou. If Pingzhou really wants to take over the northern border and Liangzhou, how many troops and horses must be mobilized, at least 200,000, right? Such a large-scale battle , it’s impossible for us not to know.”

Fu Jiangong was also confused and didn't know what happened, but he would ask people to inquire.

They also saw some common people taking meat to give to the troops camped ahead, but Qin Heng and the others did not accept it. The common people took the meat and turned back three times.

Seeing this scene, it was obvious that these common people were familiar with Qin Heng's army. Fu Jiangong thought, so many people ran away from the northern border and Liangzhou, but Xianbei didn't send an army to chase them.

"Xianbei should have some leverage in their hands." Fu Jiangong murmured solemnly.

Not long after, the person Fu Jiangong sent to inquire came back.

"General, I heard about it. It turns out that Pingzhou and Xianbei have an agreement..."

After hearing this, Fu Jiangong and his generals all took a deep breath.

"If Pingzhou does this, the population of Beibei and Liangzhou will be hollowed out." You can tell by looking at the densely packed people outside.

"Is Tuoba Khan a fool? How could he agree to such conditions?"

Without the population, there will be no tax revenue.

Fu Jiangong thought to himself, Qin Heng dared to break into Liangzhou and the northern border with four to five thousand soldiers and horses. It turned out that Pingzhou was holding hundreds of thousands of Fuyu prisoners.

At this time, Zheng Pei came to ask for instructions, "General Fu, there are so many people outside, what if someone wants to enter the city? Should our city gate be opened or not?"

Before Fu Jiangong could say anything, his confidants began to object, "Of course we can't open it! Who knows if there are spies among the people who are going to enter the city!"

Fu Jiangong was also a little worried. At this time, the people were most grateful to Qin Heng and others. What if the people and Qin Heng's army cooperated internally and externally...

In short, he has a defensive mission and does not want to cause trouble.

At night, Fu Jiangong was worried about Zheng Pei and others, so he asked his two confidants to stay vigil.

Zheng Pei curled his lips secretly.

At night, while Fu Jiangong's confidants were not paying attention, Zheng Pei threw the bacon, chicken, mutton legs and other items prepared by his brothers to Zheng next to Qin Heng's camp.

As soon as the meat landed on the ground, it was quickly taken away.

Ma Jin picked up a chicken, weighed it, and said with a smile, "Zheng Pei, this kid is on the road!"

While handling the meat, their men found a note in the chicken's belly.

Ma Jin found Qin Heng with the note, "Master Shizi, that guy Zheng Pei said he could help us capture Lueyang."

Qin Heng rejected his proposal, "Lueyang is too far away from Pingzhou, and it will be difficult to capture it."

Ma Jin thought about the distance between the two places, one to the east and the other to the west. It was indeed too far. Since the prince rejected the proposal, he went to reply to Zheng Pei.

Fu Jiangong didn't sleep well at the General's Mansion that night. Fortunately, nothing happened that night.

Early the next morning, he arrived at the city gate early. It can be seen that Qin Heng's army is already packing up and preparing to leave.

Fu Jiangong saw that as soon as Qin Heng's troops moved, the people behind them immediately followed, and none of them wanted to enter Lueyang City.

The common people passed through the city without entering. They have no nostalgia for the northern border and Liangzhou, and have no intention of staying in Lueyang.

The common people are rushing to Pingzhou. Those who don't go to Pingzhou will also go to Chang'an or the south. The main thing is to get as far away from Xianbei as possible.

In their minds, Lueyang is the junction of Liangzhou and Yongzhou, and it is probably impossible to defend it.

Seeing this scene, Fu Jiangong and others felt very uncomfortable.

Later, another troop reported that many of their soldiers were missing.

Fu Jiangong asked someone to check and found out that the soldiers slipped down from the city wall last night and left.

At last count, nearly four to five hundred soldiers were found missing!

Two of his confidants were also called to him and cursed bloody. He scolded them for being like pigs, but they didn't notice such a big movement last night.
